Default wj mall crawler lift what should i get?

Ok the stock hight on the wj makes it look like a mini van I have a rough country 4.5 lift on my xj but it is a stiff ride. I looked into the 4in kit for wj and it runs 500. But I'm worried about how its going ride. Is there a better kit for the same or less money? I'm just mainly going for looks and a good ride on this one will not get offroaded that much.

Iron rock offroad.com has the most specialized parts and the biggest lift also in my opinion the best ride rode in a 2003 wj with a 6.5 lift by them best lifted truck I've ever rode in I have a 2 inch lift with 31s on mine and it's iro also a very good ride

I honestly dont know what your talking about, a WJ looking like a mini van? Then you should have bought another XJ. I have a WJ and my wife has a Chrysler mini van, they look nothing a like.

However, if you have to satisfy your personal opinion about the looks, then go with a simple 2" lift and a set of 30s or 31s. I have seen 2" BBs go for anywhere between $90-$180. Add Shocks for a 2" lift and 4 - 31" tires and your potentially looking at $1500-$2000 for everything.

Looking good. Although i seriously doubt the OP will get as good a deal on new tires at Wally World as you did. I read your post in the Re-tread thread. I am super jealous about that deal.
